roller weights....?
« on: July 06, 2009, 07:49:15 PM »
hi, i want to replace the oem weights for Dr.pully sliding weights. any suggestion on the weight of the weights?
the oem is 21g so i was thinking on the 24g. or should i stay with the 21g by dr.pully? i more into high speed but keep a reasonable takeoff in the city.

Good info, though not B&W specific. Consensus is sliders are better than rollers. I'm staying close to 20g (19-21 probably).

I have been using 24g weight rollers for 30 000km (19000 miles). They work for me and dropped my topend revs a whole lot, but then again I am a skinny guy at 160 lb. My next weights will be 26g or 28g.

Go heavier than your current weights to keep the same cruise rpm. Staying the same will increase rpm's

My 2006 had 20g stock and my RPM's where not hitting the HP peak I wanted so I dropped then down to 16g. I weigh 380lbs so I have to do this on every scooter I own. I went with Dr. Pulley Sliders as with all my other scooters.
